[FoW] Some more WIP. 2AD M4A1 76mm and Autosaharianas

Don't worry everybody I did get some M18 Hellcats in the end and they are being painted as we speak. BF M18's are kinda fiddly, resin mistakes and pewter flash and bent tracks. Still they look good in the end, pics soon.

Love these Plastic Soldier models.

Reasonably happy with the paint

Maybe just antennae next
With these I can field a respectable force of  17 targets for my German opponents.

Captured Morris AAA trucks

The lovely AS42 with 37mm, foregound and Breda 2cm, back

Ah my lovelies
I've got several more to do. Luckily my mate Andy has taken the opportunity to knock together some Chevy trucks and Willys jeeps into some rag tag force called the LRDG.(!)

Also big ups to Seattle people, go Seahawks! Thanks Keane, now I've got a good pile of stuff to kitbash into my SciFi skirmish force for Fallout.

'Settling' for Italian sports cars

When I was a wee sprog, I remember staring lustily at a particular photograph of an obviously specially designed desert fighting vehicle. For a long time I thought it was a German vehicle, or maybe a captured SAS vehicle of some kind.
Nope.
I was looking at an AS42 Sahariana.
This is what I was looking for my entire life, and here is an interesting write up.
Here is another guy with the same idea that I'm working on.
I got one box of each, AS37 and AS42! So now all I need is your extra British, German or Italian trucks.;-)
Oh and a couple Caproni Ca 309 Ghibli's would be sweet.

Also on the table are my M3's, (GMC's and Scout Cars, thanks Pooch!) and a bunch of 57's for my MW Recon boys.
